PREFACE. 


"T7OR  many  years  I  have  been  trying  to  collect  materials  for  a  Pedigree  of  the 
Mulocks — my  mother's  family.  This  has  been  no  easy  task,  from  the  fact  that 
the  family  is  now  scattered  over  various  parts  of  the  globe,  and  from  the  paucity  of 
family  records  preserved  in  some  branches.  There  has  been  also  the  difficulty, 
common  to  pedigree-hunting  in  connexion  with  Irish  families,  that  the  Parish 
Registers  in  country  parishes  rarely  go  furthef  back  than  the  closing  years  of  the 
eighteenth  century,  and  sometimes  not  even  so  far. 

I  have  now  succeeded  in  compiling  a  Pedigree  that  is  tolerably  complete,  as  far 
as  it  goes;  and  many  members  of  the  family  have  expressed  a  wish  that  the  result  of 
my  researches  should  be  put  into  some  permanent  shape.  In  the  case  of  a  compara- 
tively small  family,  Family  Histories  or  Pedigrees  can  rarely  be  made  to  pay  the  cost 
of  publication ;  but  all  difficulties  in  this  respect  have  been  removed  in  the  present 
instance  by  the  generous  aid  of  William  B.  Homan-Mulock,  Esq.,  of  Bellair,  King's 
County,  and  Cawthra  Mulock,  Esq.,  of  Toronto,  Canada,  to  whom  all  the  present 
members  of  the  Mulock  family  should  feel  grateful. 

The  Pedigree  has  been  drawn  up  in  the  paragraph  form,  as  in  the  case  of 
pedigrees  published  in  Peerages  and  works  on  the  Landed  Gentry.  But  in  the  latter 
only  the  principal  line  of  descent  is  given  in  full,  the  descendants  of  younger  sons 
being  generally  either  wholly  omitted,  or  confined  to  a  few  generations.  As  the 
present  work  is  designed  to  give  all  the  Mulock  descendants  of  the  original  Thomas 
Mulock,  of  Ballinakill,  the  following  system  has  been  adopted.  The  children  of  each

PREFACE. 


parent  are  set  out  in  the  order  of  seniority  ;  and  all  the  Mulock  descendants  of  the 
eldest  son  are  given  before  proceeding  to  the  next  son  and  his  issue.  The  letter  of 
the  alphabet  prefixed  to  a  name  indicates  the  generation,  counting  from  the  original 
Thomas  Mulock,  of  Ballinakill.  Thus,  his  two  sons  are  A  I  and  A  2  ;  his  grand- 
children bear  the  letter  B  ;  his  great-grand-children  the  letter  C  ;  &c.,  &c.  The  figures 
following  the  letters  show  the  place  of  a  child  in  the  particular  generation.  Thus 
G  5  indicates  the  fifth  child  of  the  generation  that  is  being  dealt  with ;  and  by  looking 
back  to  the  next  preceding  F  we  find  the  parent,  and  in  like  manner  can  trace  the 
descent  from  the  commencement  of  the  Pedigree.  In  the  case  of  the  later  genera- 
tions the  children  of  Mulock  mothers  are  given;  and  to  these  the  figures  (i),  (2),  (3), 
&c.,  are  prefixed,  without  any  letter  of  the  alphabet. 

Distinct   branches   of  the   family    are    grouped    under   separate    headings,    as 

"  MULOCKS  OF  KlLNAGARNA,"  "  MULOCKS  OF  BATH,"  "  MULOCKS  OF  CANADA," 
"HOMAN-MULOCKS  OF  BELLAIR,"  &C. 

The  Mulocks  at  present  resident  in  the  United  States  have  been  retained  under 
the  head  of  the  "  Mulocks  of  Canada,"  by  reason  of  their  origin. 

The  folding  Tabular  Index  will  serve  as  a  guide  to  the  contents  of  the  paragraph 
Pedigree. 

The  following  ordinary  contractions  have  been  used  : — 
b.        =  born, 
bur.    =  buried, 
d.       =  died. 

d.s.p.  =  decessit  sine  prole,  i.e.  died  without  issue, 
m.      =  married. 

Extensive,  if  not  exhaustive,  searches  have  been  made  in  the  Public  Record 
Office  (Ireland)  and  the  Registry  of  Deeds  Office  for  documents  connected  with 
the  Mulock  family  ;  and  the  Parish  Registers  of  the  greater  number  of  the  Dublin 
Churches  and  ot  many  Country  Parishes  have  been  examined  for  Mulock  entries. 


PREFACE.  xi 

Much  valuable  information  has  been  obtained  from  members  of  the  family  in  Ireland, 
England,  Canada,  and  the  United  States  ;  and  amongst  these  the  late  Thomas 
Mulock,  Esq.,  of  Kilnagarna,  and  William  B.  Homan-Mulock,  Esq.,  of  Bellair, 
deserve  special  mention.  To  all  now  surviving  I  tender  my  sincere  thanks.  I  am 
also  much  indebted  to  my  friend  George  Lillie  Craik,  Esq.,  for  enabling  me  to  obtain 
an  engraving  of  the  fine  portrait  of  his  late  wife  Dinah  Maria  Craik  (nte  Mulock), 
painted  by  Hubert  von  Herkomer.

INTRODUCTION. 


*  I  kHE  Mulocks  appear  to  be  the  descendants  of  an  old  Irish  family,  and  to  have 
acquired  their  name  in  the  following  manner.  Mihuc  is  applied  in  the  Irish 
language  to  low,  marshy  ground,  or  to  land  bordering  on  a  lake  or  river  ;*  and 
amongst  the  numerous  places  that  received  this  name  was  that  now  known  as 
Meelick  in  the  County  Galway,  situate  on  the  Shannon  at  a  point  not  far  from 
Banagher  in  the  King's  County.  A  castle  on  an  island  in  the  Shannon  which  was 
built  prior  to  the  thirteenth  century  made  it  a  place  of  considerable  importance ;  and 
there  are  frequent  references  to  it  in  the  published  State  Papers  relating  to  Ireland. 
When  first  referred  to,  it  is  called  Miloc,  Milloc,  or  Milok  ;  but  the  spelling  of  proper 
names,  whether  place-names  or  surnames,  was  merely  phonetic  until  recent  times, 
and  at  least  twenty  different  modes  of  writing  this  place-name  have  been  noted  in 
ancient  documents.  These  include,  amongst  others,  Myllyke,  Mulighe,  and  Muleek. 

In  very  ancient  times — when  hereditary  surnames  were  unknown — Miliuc 
appears  to  have  been  used,  in  one  instance  at  least,  as  a  personal  name.  The 
biographers  of  St.  Patrick  agree  in  stating  that  when  the  youthful  Patrick  was 
brought  captive  across  the  seas  to  the  North  of  Ireland,  he  was  sold  to  Miliuc 
Macui  Buan,  described  by  some  as  King  of  Dal-Araidhe.f 


*  Joyce's  Irish  Names  of  Places,  vol.  i.,  p.  465. 

t  See  The  Tripartite  Life  of  St.  Patrick,  and  the  Life  of  St.  Patrick  contained  in  the 
Leabhar  Breac,  translations  of  which  by  John  O' Donovan  will  be  found  in  MS.  No.  1112  in 
the  Library  of  Trinity  College,  Dublin ;  The  Book  of  Armagh  (also  in  the  Library  of  Trinity 
College,  Dublin),  Caps.  11  and  12  ;  Professor  Bury's  Life  of  St.  Patrick  (London,  1905),  p.  29. 


xiv  INTRODUCTION. 

The  first  document  in  which  the  use  of  one  of  the  variants  or  corruptions  of 
Miliuc  as  a  surname  has  been  noticed  is  the  following. 

In  the  Irish  Patent  Roll  of  2  Henry  V.  letters  patent  are  found,  dated  at 
Dublin  on  the  22nd  January,  1414-5,  whereby  "the  King  granted  to  John  Malmore 
alias  Myllok,  chaplain,  and  to  William  Malmore,  his  brother,  of  Irish  blood  by 
nation,  that  they  and  all  the  issue  of  the  aforesaid  William  should  be  of  free  rank 
(status],  and  should  enjoy  the  benefit  of  the  laws  of  England,  and  should  hold  their 
lands,  tenements,  &c.,  to  them  and  the  issue  of  the  said  William  in  fee-simple,  or 
might  otherwise  acquire  and  succeed  to  the  same,  and  be  promoted  to  ecclesiastical 
benefices  and  dignities  ;  and  he  thereby  ratified  the  estate  they  already  had  in  all 
lands  whatsoever."  * 

It  is  not  clear  whether  in  this  case  the  surname  of  Myllok  had  its  origin  in 
the  place-name  of  Miloc  on  the  Shannon  above  referred  to,  or  simply  in  a  form  of 
the  general  term  Miliuc,  under  which  circumstances  its  derivation  would  correspond 
with  that  of  the  surnames  of  De  Marisco  and  Marsh  in  England.  But  as  the 
family  with  which  we  are  concerned  is  first  met  with  in  the  neighbourhood  of 
Meelick  on  the  Shannon,  and  the  name  of  that  place  was  at  times  pronounced  in 
a  way  that  was  almost  identical  with  Mullock,  we  may  feel  almost  certain  that  the 
name  of  the  family  derived  its  origin  from  the  residence  of  members  of  the  family 
at  what  is  now  known  as  Meelick. 

The  first  member  of  the  Mulock  family  of  whom  we  have  any  definite  knowledge 
is  Thomas  Mullock,  of  Ballinakill.  Ballinakill,  which  is  now  called  Ballynakill  (i.e. 
Churchtown)  on  the  Ordnance  Survey  maps,  is  a  townland  in  the  parish  of 
Dononaughta,  and  County  Galway,  situate  about  two  and  a  half  miles  north  of 
the  village  of  Meelick.f  The  descendants  of  this  Thomas  Mullock,  as  will  be  seen 

*  The  letters-patent  are  in  Latin,  but  the  above  abstract  is  a  translation  of  the  material 
portions. 

t  When  the  late  Thomas  Mulock,  of  Kilnagarna,  was  drawing  up  the  lineage  of  the  family  for 
insertion  in  Burke's  Landed  Gentry,  having  no  knowledge  whatever  of  the  locality  in  which  the 
residence  of  Thomas  Mullock  of  Ballinakill  was  situate,  he  assumed  by  a  mere  guess  that  it  was 
Ballinakill,  Queen's  County.  There  is  no  evidence,  however,  that  the  Mullocks  ever  lived  or  held 
lands  in  the  Queen's  County;  and  the  present  writer,  by  a  perusal  of  the  will  of  Robert  Mulock,  of 
Banagher  (see  p.  13),  was  enabled  to  identify  Ballinakill  as  above  stated, 


INTRODUCTION.  xv 

by  the  Pedigree,  crossed  the  Shannon  and  passed  into  the  King's  County,  and  an 
adjoining  portion  of  the  County  Westmeath  ;  but  an  interest  in  the  lands  of 
Ballinakill  was  retained,  until  it  devolved  on  the  daughters  of  Robert  Mulock,  of 
Banagher,  under  their  father's  will  ;  and  Banagher  long  continued  to  be  a  habitat 
of  the  family. 

Another  branch  of  the  family  appears  to  have  migrated  down  the  Shannon  to 
the  City  of  Limerick,  where  a  family  of  Mullock  is  found  at  the  present  day.  To 
this  branch  no  doubt  belonged  the  Rev.  John  T.  Mullock,  who  was  born  in  Limerick 
about  the  beginning  of  the  nineteenth  century,  and  entered  the  Irish  Franciscan 
Province  in  1825.  He  was  successively  guardian  of  the  Cork  and  Dublin  Franciscan 
convents,  and  was  consecrated  Bishop  of  Newfoundland  on  27  December,  1847. 

The  connexion  between  Thomas  Mullock,  of  Ballinakill,  and  the  Limerick 
Mullocks  has  not  been  traced.  Our  knowledge  of  this  Thomas  Mullock  is  derived 
solely  from  an  old  pedigree  of  the  family,  in  the  handwriting  of  Thomas  Mulock,  of 
Kilnagarna  (the  Counsellor),  that  seems  to  be  the  copy  of  a  pedigree  prepared  for 
the  purposes  of  an  ejectment  brought  by  Joshua  Mulock,  of  Clara  (p.  i),  against 
Benjamin  Ball,  a  descendant  of  Nicholas  Mulock  (p.  26),  the  younger  son  of  Thomas 
Mullock,  of  Ballinakill. 

That  there  were  Mulocks  in  Banagher  other  than  those  named  in  the  Pedigree 
seems  clear,  as  the  records  of  the  Court  of  Exchequer  show  that  on  13  September, 
1834,  William  Mulock,  of  Orillia  (p.  15),  obtained  judgment  in  an  ejectment  brought 
by  him  against  "  Bridget  Mulock  and  Mary  Mulock,  of  Banagher,  widows,"  for 
recovery  of  part  of  the  lands  of  Banagher,  commonly  known  by  the  name  of  the 
Mill  Park.  Who  these  evicted  widows  were  has  not  been  ascertained. 

It  seems  desirable,  however,  to  publish  the  Pedigree  as  it  stands,  without  waiting 
any  longer  to  supply  its  deficiencies.

THE  FAMILY  OF  MULOCK. 

THOMAS  MULOCK,  or  MULLOCK,  of  Ballynakill,  or  Ballinakill,  in  the  parish  of 
Dononaughta,  County  Galway  (which  lies  about  two  and  a  half  miles  from  Meelick, 
formerly  called  Miloc,  on  the  Shannon),  married  about  the  middle  of  the  seventeenth 
century,  and  left  at  his  death  two  sons  :  A  I.  Thomas  (see  below),  and  A  2.  Nicholas 
(see  p.  26). 

A  i.  THOMAS  MULOCK,  of  Moate,  County  Westmeath,  was  born  about  1655, 
and,  by  his  marriage  with  his  first  wife  Frances  Meares,  he  had  a  son  B  I.  Jeremiah 
(see  below).  He  married,  secondly,  Margaret  Conran,  and  of  this  marriage  there 
was  issue  three  sons,  viz. :  B  2.  John  (p.  2) ;  63.  Thomas  (p.  3),  ancestor  of  the 
Mulocks  of  Kilnagarna,  and  the  Mulocks  of  Bath  and  of  Ballinagore  ;  and  B  4. 
Robert  (p.  13),  ancestor  of  the  Mulocks  of  Canada,  and  the  Homan-Mulocks  of 
Bellair  and  Ballycumber. 

B  i.  JEREMIAH  MULOCK,  who  is  named  in  the  codicil  dated  31  March, 
1757,  to  the  will  of  his  half-brother  John  Mulock,  left  at  his  death  three 
children  : — 

C  i.  THOMAS  MULOCK,  d.s.p. 

C  2.  JOHN  MULOCK,  of  Clara  ;  married,  and  left  an  only  son  : — 

D  i.  JOSHUA  MULOCK,  of  Clara,  King's  County.  He  married 
in  February,  1774,  Sarah  Robinson,  of  the  parish  of  Castletown,* 
and  had  issue  four  daughters,  viz. : — 

E  i.  Elizabeth,  m.  John  Thompson. 

E  2,  Mary,  m.  Edward  Kelly. 

E  3.  Sarah,  m.  Robert  Mathews,  of  Killare. 

E  4.  Eleanor,  m.  Bernard  Maguire. 

Joshua  Mulock  made  his  will  dated  21  September,  1829,  and 
a  codicil  dated  i  April,  1832,  which  were  proved  on  28  April, 
I^35>  by  his  daughter  Elizabeth  Thompson.  Hed.  in  the  month 
of  April,  1835,  aged  90,  and  was  bur.  in  the  churchyard  at  Clara, 
King's  County,  on  16  April,  1835.

2  THE  FAMILY  OF  MULOCK. 

C  3.  EDWARD  MULOCK,  d.s.p. 

These  three  sons  of  Jeremiah  Mulock  are  named  in  the  codicil  to  the 
will  of  John  Mulock  (B  2.)  above  referred  to,  by  which  they  were 
bequeathed  a  small  legacy. 

B  2.  JOHN  MULOCK,  of  Liss,*  and  afterwards  of  Kilnagarna  and  Castlerea, 
King's  County,  was  the  eldest  son  of  Thomas  Mulock,  of  Moate  (A  i.),  by 
his  second  wife  Margaret  Conran.  He  acquired  freehold  interests  of  con- 
siderable extent  and  value  in  the  lands  of  Ballyard  (afterwards  called 
Bellairf),  Kilnagarna,  Castlerea,  and  others,  in  the  King's  County. 

In  the  month  of  August,  1720,  he  married  Ann,  daughter  of  Robert 
Drought,  of  Park,  King's  County;  and  prior  to  the  marriage  an  indenture  of 
settlement  was  executed,  dated  16  August,  1720,  made  between  the  said 
Robert  Drought  and  Ann  Drought,  his  daughter,  of  the  one  part,  and 
Thomas  Mulock,  of  Moate,  and  his  son  the  said  John  Mulock,  of  the  other 
part.} 

There  was  no  issue  of  this  marriage ;  and  by  his  will  dated  24  January, 
1755,  John  Mulock,  then  described  as  of  Kilnagarna,  devised  the  Ballyard 
estate  to  his  nephew  the  Rev.  John  Mulock  and  his  heirs,  subject  to  a  small 
annuity  payable  thereout  to  the  testator's  brother  Robert  Mulock ;  and  as 
to  the  residue  of  his  real  estate  (which  included  Kilnagarna  and  Castlerea) 
he  devised  the  same  to  his  brother  Thomas  Mulock  for  his  life,  with 
remainder  to  such  son  or  sons  of  the  said  Thomas  as  he  should  by 
deed  or  will  appoint,  and  to  the  heirs  male  of  such  son  or  sons,  and,  in 
default  of  such  appointment,  to  Thomas  Mulock,  eldest  son  of  the  testator's 
brother  Thomas,  and  the  heirs  male  of  his  body,  with  remainder  to  the 
testator's  nephew  John  Mulock,  son  of  the  testator's  brother  Thomas,  and 
the  heirs  male  of  his  body,  with  remainder  to  the  testator's  nephew  Robert 
Mulock,  son  of  the  testator's  brother  Thomas,  and  the  heirs  male  of  his 
body,  with  remainders  over.  And  the  testator  devised  to  his  brother 

*  Liss  (which  in  Irish  means  'a  circular  fort')  was  the  name  of  a  locality  near  Bellair,  in 
the  parish  of  Lemanaghan,  otherwise  Kilnagarna,  and  barony  of  Garrycastle,  King's  Co.,  in  which 
parish  both  Kilnagarna  and  Bellair  are  situate.  The  Parish  Church  is  known  as  Liss  Church. 

t  Bally-ard  signifies  'high  town,'  or  'the  town  on  the  height.'  It  must  have  been  called 
Bellair  before  February,  1774,  as  Thomas  Mulock,  of  Dublin  and  Kilnagarna,  by  his  will  dated 

3  Feb.,  1774,  nominated  "the  Rev.  John  Mulock  of  Bellair"  as  one  of  the  trustees. 

\  In  this  deed  both  Thomas  and  John  signed  their  surname  as  "  Mullock,"  but,  in  the  will  and 
codicil  next  referred  to,  John  spelled  his  name  "  Mulock,"

Robert  Mulock  all  his  estate  and  interest  in  the  holdings  which  the 
testator's  father  had  in  the  town  of  Moate,  in  the  County  of  Westmeath. 
The  testator  made  a  codicil,  dated  31  March,  1757,  to  his  said  will,  the 
provisions  of  which  are  not  material  to  be  mentioned  ;  and  he  died  without 
issue  on  22  September,  1757.*  In  the  announcement  of  his  death  in 
Exshaw's  Magazine  of  the  period,  he  is  described  as  then  "of  Castlerea, 
King's  County." 

B  3.  THOMAS  MULOCK,  of  Skinner  Row,  Dublin,  and  afterwards  of 
Kilnagarna,  the  third  son  of  Thomas  Mulock,  of  Moate,  became  a  con- 
veyancer and  notary — then  a  branch  of  the  legal  profession — and  was 
duly  admitted  to  practice  by  a  faculty  from  the  Prerogative  Court  in 
Ireland,  dated  22  February,  173  i.f 

He  married  on  17  May,  1744,  Mary,  daughter  of  James  Lawless,  of 
Shankill,  County  Dublin,  by  his  first  wife  Margaret,  daughter  of  Thomas 
Cave  ;  and  on  the  same  day  marriage  articles  were  executed,  made  between 
the  said  Thomas  Mulock  of  the  first  part,  the  said  Mary  Lawless  of  the 
second  part,  and  Thomas  Cave,  of  the  City  of  Dublin,  and  John  Mulock, 
of  Liss,  King's  County,  of  the  third  part.  The  family  of  Lawless,  originally 
from  Hoddesdon,  Herts,  came  to  Ireland  in  the  fourteenth  century  or  earlier, 
and  was  seated  successively  at  Shanganagh,  County  Dublin,  Talbot  Inch, 
County  Kilkenny,  and  Shankill,  also  in  the  County  Dublin.  The  above- 
named  James  Lawless  was  a  first  cousin  of  Robert  Lawless,  of  Dublin  and 
of  Abingdon,  County  Limerick,  father  of  Sir  Nicholas  Lawless,  Bart., 
created  Baron  Cloncurry  on  22  September,  1789.  (See  Burke's  Peerage, 
CLONCURRY,  B.)J 

Mary  Lawless  had  been  brought  up  as  a  Roman  Catholic,  though  her 

*  The  will  and  codicil  were  not  proved,  and  the  originals  are  now  at  Bellair. 

t  That  he  was  possessed  of  some  esprit  appears  from  the  song  printed  in  the  Appendix,  post. 

\  The  Lawless  family  were  devoted  adherents  of  the  Stuarts;  and  when  James  II.  and  the 
remnant  of  his  forces  were  encamped  at  Loughlinstown,  Co.  Dublin— which  is  close  to  Shankill— 
after  the  disastrous  battle  of  the  Boyne,  the  King  was  entertained  by  Peter  Lawless,  who  then 
resided  in  the  fortified  house  now  known  as  Puck's  Castle,  on  the  lands  of  Rathmichael.  A  few 
days  afterwards  Mrs.  Peter  Lawless  gave  birth  to  the  above-named  James  Lawless,  who  received 
his  baptismal  name  in  compliment  to  the  Sovereign,  the  King,  by  the  Duke  of  Berwick  as  proxy, 
acting  as  one  of  the  sponsors.  See  The  Life,  Times,  and  Contemporaries  of  Lord  Cloncurry, 
by  William  J.  Fitzpatrick  (Dublin,  1855),  pp.  9,  10,  where,  however,  the  father  of  this  James 
Lawless  is  erroneously  represented  as  Thomas  Lawless,  and  other  genealogical  blunders  are  made 
by  Mr.  Fitzpatrick  in  respect  to  the  Lawless  family.

mother  had  been  a  Protestant ;  but  before  her  marriage  she  became  a 
member  of  the  Church  of  Ireland,  and  her  certificate  of  conformity  bears 
date  4  May,  1744.* 

There  was  issue  of  the  marriage  of  Thomas  Mulock  and  Mary  Lawless 
four  sons  and  two  daughters,  viz.  :  C  I.  Thomas  (see  below) ;  C  2.  John 
(p.  8)  ;  C  3.  Robert  (p.  8) ;  C  4.  William  (p.  11) ;  C  5.  Harriet  (p.  12) ;  and 
C  6.  Mary  (p.  12). 

Thomas  Mulock  made  his  will  dated  3  February,  1774,  and  a  codicil 
bearing  the  same  date,  which  were  proved  at  Dublin  on  13  December,  1777. 
He  d.  on  2  September,  1774,  and  was  bur.  at  Mount  Temple,  near  Moate, 
County  Westmeath. 


MULOCKS    OF   KILNAGARNA. 

C  i.  THOMAS  MULOCK,  of  Kilnagarna  (known  in  the  family  as  "  the 
Counsellor"),  was  b.  in  1746,  and  entering  Trinity  College,  Dublin, 
in  1761,  he  had  a  distinguished  academic  career,  obtaining  Scholar- 
ship in  1764,  and  graduating  as  B.A.  in  1766.  He  was  called  to  the 
Irish  Bar  in  Hilary  Term,  1772,  having  previously  become  a  member 
of  the  Middle  Temple  in  London,  and  kept  the  necessary  terms  there.f 
For  many  years  he  had  a  house  in  Eccles  Street,  Dublin,  where  he  used 
to  live  in  Term  time ;  but  he  never  got  into  any  substantial  practice  at 
the  Bar.  His  tastes  were  mainly  literary;  and  the  common-place  books 
which  he  left  behind  him  show  that  he  was  well  read  in  the  ancient 
classics  as  well  as  in  English  and  French  literature.^  On  4  December, 
1790,  he  married  Frances  Henrietta  Dorothea  (b.  19  September,  1763), 
daughter  and  co-heiress  of  Samuel  Judge,  of  Ballyshiel,  King's  County, 
by  his  wife  Frances  Otway.  (See  Burke's  Peerage,  OTWAY,  Bart. ;  and 
Burke's  Landed  Gentry  of  Ireland,  OTWAY-RUTHVEN,  of  Castle  Otway.) 

There  was  issue  of  the  marriage,  one  son  and  five  daughters,  viz. : 
D  I.  Frances  (p.  5) ;  D  2.  Mary  (p.  5)  ;  D  3.  Thomas  (p.  5) ; 

*  Much  information  concerning  members  of  the  Lawless  and  Cave  families  is  to  be  found  in  a 
bill  in  the  Equity  Exchequer,  filed  29  April,  1745,  by  Thomas  Mulock  and  Mary  Mulock,  otherwise 
Lawless,  his  wife,  against  John  Archer  and  Ann  his  wife,  and  others. 

t  Some  of  his  letters  at  this  period  (1770-1771),  written  from  London  to  his  father,  are  in  the 
possession  of  the  present  writer,  and  give  an  interesting  account  of  his  doings.  One  of  them  is 
printed  in  the  Appendix,  post,  p.  29. 

\  He  was  fond  of  writing  verses,  and  a  specimen  of  them  will  be  found  in  the  Appendix.

MULOCKS    OF    BATH. 

C  3.  ROBERT  MULOCK,  the  third  son  of  Thomas  Mulock,  of  Dublin 
and  Kilnagarna,  obtained  an  appointment  in  the  Stamp  Office,  Dublin, 
of  which  he  became  eventually  Comptroller.  On  retiring  from  the  Public 
Service  he  settled  in  Bath,  where  he  d.  16  April,  1837,  and  was  bur. 
at  St.  Mary's  Episcopal  Chapel.  His  will  is  dated  24  February,  1835, 
and  was  proved  on  19  September,  1837. 

In  the  month  of  June,  1784,  he  married  Maria  Sarah,  daughter  of 
Samuel  Horner,  of  Finglas,  County  Dublin ;  and  a  settlement,  dated 
8  June,  1784,  was  executed  in  contemplation  of  the  marriage.  There 
was  issue  of  the  marriage,  in  addition  to  three  sons  and  four  daughters 
who  all  died  in  infancy,  two  sons  : — D  I.  Thomas  Samuel  Mulock  (see 
below),  and  D  2.  William  Mulock  (p.  10);  and  nine  daughters,  viz. : — 
D  3.  Elizabeth  (see  p.  10) ;  D  4.  Emily  (p.  10)  ;  D  5.  Jane  (p.  10) ; 
D  6.  Anne  (p.  10)  ;  D  7.  Frances  (p.  10)  ;  D  8.  Charlotte  (p.  10)  ; 
09.  Harriet  (p.  10) ;  D  10.  Sophia  (p.  10);  and  D  n.  Alicia  Bonne 
(p.  10).  Maria  Sarah  Mulock,  widow  of  Robert  Mulock,  of  Bath,  made 
her  will,  dated  7  July,  1838,  and  a  codicil  dated  13  February,  1841  ; 
pr.  12  August,  1841.  She  d.  14  February,  1841,  and  was  bur.  at  St. 
Mary's  Chapel,  Bath. 

D  i.  THOMAS  SAMUEL  MULOCK,  b.  in  Dublin  in  1789,  was  a 
man  of  great  ability,  but  even  greater  eccentricity.  He  matriculated 
at  Magdalen  Hall,  Oxford,  on  20  June,  1817,  but  soon  abandoned 
his  studies  at  the  University.  He  was  for  some  time  Private 
Secretary  to  the  eminent  statesman  George  Canning,  with  whom 


THE  FAMILY  OF  MULOCK.  9 

he  was  on  intimate  terms.  In  1819  he  published  in  London  his 
"  Answer  given  by  the  Gospel  to  the  Atheism  of  all  the  Ages  " ; 
and  he  wrote  various  letters  on  Christianity  to  Lord  Byron,  whose 
ways  and  ideas  he  sought  to  mend.  He  delivered  courses  of 
lectures  on  English  literature  at  Geneva  and  Paris.  Several  of  the 
latter  were  attended  by  Tom  Moore,  and  are  referred  to  in  his 
Memoirs ;  but  the  poet  seems  to  have  formed  a  poor  opinion  of 
the  lecturer.  He  was  constantly  engaged  in  theological  and  other 
controversies,  and  appears  to  have  entered  the  Baptist  Ministry, 
and  to  have  founded  a  Baptist  Chapel  at  Stoke-upon-Trent.  On 
7  June,  1825,  he  was  married  at  Stoke  to  Dinah,  daughter  of 
Thomas  Mellard,  of  Newcastle-under-Lyme.  Abandoning  the 
Baptist  Ministry,  he  became  for  some  time  the  editor  of  a  news- 
paper in  Scotland.  During  the  latter  portion  of  his  life  he  wrote 
many  pamphlets  on  various  subjects,  social  and  political,  and  was 
an  indefatigable  writer  in  the  newspapers.  He  lived  to  the  ripe  old 
age  of  eighty,  and  died  at  Stafford  on  n  August,  1869.  An 
interesting  sketch  of  his  life  by  Mr.  Aleyn  Lyell  Reade  will  be 
found  in  Notes  and  Queries  (9th  ser.),  vol.  vii.,  482,  501. 

There  was  issue  of  his  marriage  three  children,  viz.: — E  i.  Dinah 
Maria  (see  below) ;  E  2.  Thomas  Mellard  (p.  10) ;  and  E  3.  Benjamin 
Robert  (p.  10). 

E  i.  DINAH  MARIA,  better  known  as  "The  Author  rfjohn 
Halifax,  Gentleman"  was,  without  doubt,  the  most  distinguished 
member  that  the  Mulock  family  has  yet  produced.  She  was 
b.  20  April,  1826,  at  Stoke-upon-Trent,  and,  owing  to  her 
father's  erratic  habits,  she  was  led  at  a  very  early  age  to  seek 
to  make  a  livelihood  by  her  pen.  She  settled  in  London 
about  1846;  and  beginning  with  stories  for  children,  she 
advanced  steadily  until  John  Halifax,  Gentleman,  placed  her 
in  the  front  rank  of  the  novelists  of  her  day.  For  particulars 
of  her  works  and  a  short  memoir  of  her  life,  readers  are 
referred  to  the  article  on  her  in  the  Dictionary  of  National 
Biography.  On  30  April,  1865,*  she  was  married  to  George 
Lillie  Craik,  Esq. ;  and  she  died  without  issue  at  Shortlands, 

In  the  Dictionary  of  National  Biography  the  year  is  erroneously  given  as  1864.

Banagher,  King's  County,  fourth  son  of  Thomas  Mulock,  of  Moate  (p.  i), 
entered  the  medical  profession,  and  practised  for  some  time  at  Moate.  In 
addition  to  the  holdings  in  the  town  of  Moate  that  passed  to  him  by  the 
will  of  his  brother  John  Mulock,  he  had  other  leasehold  interests  in  the 
neighbourhood  of  the  town.*  He  was  also  possessed  of  the  lands  of  Ballina- 
kill  in  the  County  Galway,  held  under  a  freehold  lease  from  Peter  Marsh,  of 
Moyally,  King's  County,  and  had  other  freehold  leases  of  lands  in  the  King's 
County.  He  moved  from  Moate  to  Banagher  some  time  between  August, 
1756,  and  April,  1764. 

He  married  a  wife  whose  Christian  name  was  Katherine,  but  whose 
surname  is  at  present  unknown ;  and  there  was  issue  of  the  marriage  four 
children,  viz. : — C  i.  John  (p.  14) ;  C  2.  Helena  (p.  26) ;  C  3.  Elizabeth 
(p.  26)  ;  and  C  4.  Frances  (p.  26). 

Robert  Mulock,  being  then  resident  at  Banagher,  duly  made  his  will  dated 
5  February,  1781,  and  thereby  devised  to  his  wife  Katherine  Mulock  the 
glebe  of  Clonlyon,  in  as  full  a  manner  as  he  held  the  same  of  the  Rev.  Henry 
Colgan,  together  with  all  his  goods  and  chattels ;  and  as  to  his  freehold 
leases  therein  described,  he  devised  the  same  to  his  daughters  Elizabeth  and 
Frances,  share  and  share  alike,  and  to  their  heirs  and  assigns.  And  as  to  a 
rent  charge  which  he  had  upon  certain  lands  near  Birr,  he  willed  the  same 
to  his  dearly  beloved  wife.  He  constituted  and  appointed  his  much-loved 
son  John  Mulock  to  be  his  sole  executor. 

He  made  a  codicil  to  his  will  dated  21  January,  1783,  and  thereby  declared 
that  his  wife  Katherine  should  enjoy  Clonlyon  for  her  life,  and  that  after  her 
death  the  lands  should  revert  to  his  daughters  Frances  and  Elizabeth. 

The  testator  died  some  time  before  the  month  of  December,  1791  ;  and  on 
15  December,  1791,  letters  of  administration  of  the  goods  of  the  said  Robert 
Mulock  with  his  said  will  and  codicil  annexed  were  duly  granted  to  Frances 
Grattan,  otherwise  Mulock,  wife  of  Thomas  Grattan,  Doctor  of  Physic,  a 
daughter  of  the  testator  and  a  principal  legatee  under  his  will,  John  Mulock, 
the  executor,  having  renounced  his  rights.

SONG. 
BY  THOMAS  MULOCK,  OF  SKINNER  Row,  DUBLIN. 

i. 

To  you  fair  ladies  at  Shankill 

From  Skinner  Row  I  write ; 
But  first  you  see  how  weak's  my  skill, 

Though  willing  to  indite. 
In  vain  I  to  the  Muses  sue, 
When  absent  from  Shankill  and  you. 

Fal  la,  &c. 

2. 

Let  bards  of  old  Parnassus  sing, 

Or  Heliconian  stream, 
Their  Muses'  hill  and  boasted  spring 

Are  but  an  idle  dream  : 
'Tis  you  can  guide  the  poet's  quill, 
And  true  Parnassus  is  Shankill. 

3. 

With  mirth  and  wit  in  constant  flow 

The  happy  days  are  crown'd ; 
Nor  can  the  night's  more  sullen  brow 

Retard  the  joyous  round. 
But  while  dull  drowsy  mortals  sleep, 
There  joy  and  love  their  vigils  keep.

But  here  how  different  is  the  scene ! 

How  dull  does  all  appear! 
No  smiles  from  Moll1  or  Jenny  Bean,2 

No  Gunning3  charms  the  ear. 
How  dull  you  creep,  ye  tedious  days, 
Without  blithe  Nancy's4  mirth  to  please. 


But  how  amidst  the  city  air, 

And  all  its  busy  noise, 
Can  I  dwell  on  each  sweet  Nymph  there, 

With  all  their  rural  joys  ! 
Then  let  this  poor  sketch  prove  my  will ; 
We'll  sing  the  rest- when  at  Shankill. 

With  a  fal  la  la,  &c. 


1  Mary  Lawless,  afterwards  his  wife. 

3  Mary  Phelan,  a  daughter  of  the  second  Mrs.  James  Lawless  by  a  former  marriage,  married  a 
Mr.  Bean,  and  Jenny  Bean  must  have  been  a  sister  or  some  other  relative  of  her  husband. 

3  Possibly  some  member  of  the  family  that  produced  "  the  beautiful  Miss  Gunnings."

LETTER  FROM  THOMAS  MULOCK  (THE  COUNSELLOR)  TO  HIS  FATHER,  THOMAS  MULOCK, 

OF  SKINNER  Row,  DUBLIN. 

"LONDON,  Nov.  9,  1770. 
"EVER  HONOURED  SIR, 

"I  am  so  extremely  well  that  nothing  can  make  me  better  except  hearing  that  you 
are  so.  I  have  not  heard  from  you  since  your  second  Letter  of  the  27th  of  October,  and 
this  (if  I  misreckon  not)  is  my  seventh  from  London.  You  see  the  Ballance  is  on  my  side, 
and  is  likely  to  remain  so,  as  you  tell  me  in  your  second  that  while  you  are  in  the  Country  I 
must  not  expect  to  hear  from  you.  But  why  wou'd  you  not  make  Bob  write  to  me  ?  I 
assure  you  the  Pleasure  I  receive  by  a  letter  from  Ireland  transcends  all  the  Pleasures  I  have 
tasted,  or  shall  taste  (I  believe),  in  England.  I  beg  then  that  whether  in  town  or  country,  I 
may  hear  from  you.  For  me  I  will  fulfill  the  Scripture  Maxim,  '  return  Good  for  Evil,'  and 
continue  a  punctual  Correspondent.  I  write  to  you  every  Monday  and  Friday,  as  every 
night  is  a  Postnight  here,  except  Sunday  night.  If  you  think  proper,  I  will  write  to  you  on 
any  other  night,  or  I  will  write  three  times  a  week  instead  of  twice,  if  you  chuse  it,  or  six 
times.  I  shall  have  time  enough  to  write,  and  trifles  enough  to  fill  up  a  Letter  constantly. 

"I  am  entered  into  Commons  at  the  Temple,  and  have  dined  there  these  two  days. 
The  Hall  and  manner  of  dining  very  much  resembles  that  of  our  University.  The  Commons 
are  Beef  and  Mutton  alternately,  for  which  they  charge  a  shilling  a  head ;  but  there  is  a 
custom  peculiar,  I  am  informed,  to  Middle-Temple,  and  introduced  by  the  Irish  Students 
there,  to  bespeak  some  extraordinary  Dishes  of  Fowl  or  Fish,  together  with  wine  and 
sweetmeats,  which  are  called  Exceedings,  and  for  these  you  pay  before  you  quitt  the  Hall, 
just  as  in  a  Tavern,  only  here  your  charges  are  higher.  There  is  another  custom,  that  when 
a  man  goes  into  Commons  first,  he  must  treat  his  Mess,  and  upon  this  occasion  he  must 
bespeak  a  large  quantity  of  Exceedings  and  give  his  Mess  as  much  Wine  as  they  can  drink. 
Those  two  days  past  I  have  been  treated  by  two  newly  entered  Students  ;  this  day  it  is  my 
Turn,  for  we  must  all  treat  separately,  as  such  a  Rule  is  productive  of  more  eating  and 
Drinking.  I  assure  you  I  shall  stop  at  no  expence  upon  this  occasion,  and  entertain  them 
as  well  as  they  have  entertained  me. 

"  This  long  account  of  Exceedings,  Commons,  &c.,  naturally  leads  me  to  reiterate  my 
request  of  a  Letter  of  Credit,  as  my  Stock  will  be  extremely  small  after  this,  I  must  say, 
unexpected  Expence.  There  are  other  additional  Expences,  as  Perquisites  to  Cooks, 
Waiters,  to  a  Servant  who  supplies  you  with  a  Gown  to  wear  in  the  Temple  Hall,  &c.,  all 
which  amount  to  a  good  sum.  I  have  attended  the  Court  of  King's  Bench  since  Term 
began ;  but  nothing  material  or  remarkable  has  yet  occurred. 

"  If  I  dine  at  Commons  one  day  in  each  of  the  two  succeeding  weeks,  my  term  is 
answered.  I  shall  now  propose  this  plain  question  to  you,  which  I  request  you  may  answer 
in  your  next.  Shall  I  after  answering  this  Term  return  to  Ireland,  to  social  and  domestic

pleasures  and  to  you,  or  shall  I  stay  till  March,  and  answer  the  two  terms  ?  I  will  not  tell 
you  what  way  my  inclination  points,  because  I  think  it  is  sufficiently  obvious. 

"  Last  night  Barry  play'd  Bajazet  to  a  crowded  House  a  second  time.  I  cou'd  hardly 
get  room  in  the  Pit  at  five  o'clock.  He  has  recovered  the  use  of  his  .limbs  greatly,  and  his 
voice  in  that  part  was  as  strong  and  as  clear  as  ever.  The  Londoners  are  in  general  very 
mean  Judges  of  theatric  Merit.  They  are  very  ignorant,  subject  to  prejudice,  and  very 
envious  and  malignant.  It  was  not  without  indignation  that  I  observed  last  night  the  many 
warm  efforts  to  check  the  Bursts  of  Applause  when  Barry  performed.  A  set  of  stupid  Cits 
that  durst  not  hiss,  but  would  not  clap,  were  perpetually  crying  out  '  Silence,'  when  the 
Audience  began  to  applaud ;  but  after  all  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Barry's  Performances  were  greatly 
admired,  and  greatly  applauded. 

"  Our  Pit  is  much  more  respectable,  and  I  think  much  more  judicious,  than  that  in 
London.  The  Pit  here,  with  regard  to  the  Company  you  meet  in  it,  resembles  the  Middle 
Gallery  in  Dublin.  Here  in  the  Pit  you  see  none  but  Tradesmen,  Mechanicks,  Attornies' 
Clerks,  and  Ladies  of  Pleasure.  In  the  boxes  you  see  Lords,  Ladies,  and  fine  Gentlemen, 
who  are  too  much  employed  in  admiring  themselves  and  one  another  to  pay  any  attention  to 
the  performance.  From  this  description  of  the  Company  I  leave  you  to  judge  what  sort  of 
Criticks  must  fill  the  rest  of  the  house. 

"  'Tis  no  wonder  then  if  such  an  Audience  be  as  ready  to  applaud  such  Performers  as 
Aikin  or  Reddish,  as  Barry  or  Garrick.  Ross,  whose  playing  even  Scotchmen  cou'd  not 
endure,  performs  capital  Parts  in  Tragedy  at  Covent  Garden  with  applause.  That  blustering, 
ignorant  Actor,  Smith,  is  there  admired  in  all  Barry's  parts.  A  Razormaker,  one  Savigny, 
has  lately  appeared  at  Covent  Garden  in  the  character  of  Selim  in  Barbarossa,  a  fellow 
without  liberal  education  or  any  one  qualification  requisite  to  form  the  Actor ;  yet  he  draws 
crowded  houses.  The  Londoners  stare,  gape,  and  '  wonder  with  a  foolish  face  of  praise,'  as 
if  he  really  had  some  Merit. 

"  Miss  Catley  plays  this  winter  at  Covent  Garden ;  she  is  greatly  admired,  and  is 
considered  as  the  first  English  Singer  here. 

"  I  write  this  Letter  early,  for  this  is  the  Lord  Major's  Day,  and  I  must  hasten  out  to 
see  the  Pageant.  In  my  next  I  will  describe  it,  if  I  am  so  lucky  as  to  get  a  place  in 
Cheapside  to  see  it.  At  all  Events,  I  shall  see  the  show  upon  the  water  at  Mr.  Barry's 
House,  which  is  delightfully  situated  close  by  the  Thames,  between  the  two  noble 
bridges  of  Westminster  and  Blackfryars.  From  this  house  you  have  a  fine  view  of  St.  Paul's, 
of  Westminster  Abbey,  and  of  the  most  beautiful  churches  in  London.  It  appears  to  me,  the 
most  agreeable  situation  in  this  noble  Capital. 

"  Well  !  all  my  hurry  is  over..  I  have  seen  the  Pageant  upon  the  water  twice.  I  think 
it  is  pretty,  and  just  worth  seeing.  You  see  about  12  or  13  Barges  handsomely  painted,  with 
a  great  number  of  flags  and  streamers,  the  Ensigns  of  each  Corporation.  I  cou'd  not  see 
the  Procession  by  land,  because  I  could  not  get  a  place  in  Cheapside. 

"  I  have  entertained  my  mess,  which  cost  me  just  25  shillings  :  a  smart  reckoning,

considering  there  are  but  4  to  a  mess ;  but  a  Templar  must  not  consider  these  things,  if 
he  means  to  preserve  himself  from  contempt.  I  have  kept  an  account  of  each  day's 
expence,  and  can  show  you  to  what  all  my  expences  amount,  almost  exactly.  The 
Middle  Temple  is  the  most  expensive  of  any  of  the  Temples,  for  the  majority  of  the 
Students  there  are  Irish  Lads.  I  believe  you  will  think  that  a  sufficient  reason.  I  long 
most  ardently  to  hear  from  you.  I  am,  Sir,  with  Love  to  Bob,  the  Girls  and  William,

VERSES  ADDRESSED  TO  A  YOUNG  LADY. 

[By  THOMAS  MULOCK,  OF  KILNAGARNA  (THE  COUNSELLOR),   THE  YOUNG  LADY  BEING 
Miss  FRANCES  H.  D.  JUDGE,  OF  BALLYSHIEL,  AFTERWARDS  HIS  WIFE. 


Long  a  traitor  to  love,  I  disdained  to  obey 
The  power  that  kingdoms  and  monarchs  can  sway  ; 
But  now  that  soft  passion,  exalted,  refined, 
Directs  every  thought  and  enraptures  my  mind, 
My  heart  wildly  beats,  and  my  verses,  if  any, 
Howe'er,  they  begin,  must  be  ended  with  Fanny. 

2. 

With  her  in  sweet  converse  the  evening  I  passed, 

How  much  I  regretted  that  time  flew  so  fast ; 

When  mirth  and  good  humour  enlivened  the  night, 

And  heart-opening  friendship  gave  real  delight ; 

Ye  circles  of  fashion  and  pleasure,  say,  can  ye 

Boast  pleasures  so  great  as  love,  friendship,  and  Fanny  ? 


32  APPENDIX. 

3- 

When  Fanny's  fair  hands  o'er  the  harpsichord  moved, 
My  heart  beat  responsive  to  tell  how  I  loved  ; 
On  her  music  and  voice  enraptured  I  hung, 
And  harmony  charmed,  because  the  nymph  sung ; 
Retired  from  the  giddy,  the  vain,  and  the  many, 
I  envied  not  Monarchs  when  seated  by  Fanny. 

4- 

Should  I  gain  the  dear  nymph,  how  happy  I'll  prove, 
When  years  still  revolving  shall  add  to  our  love  ; 
Though  time  may  with  envy  her  beauties  consume, 
Spite  of  envy  and  time,  her  virtues  must  bloom ; 
My  bliss  will  be  great,  superior  to  any 
-     The  minions  of  fortune,  when  blest  with  fair  Fanny. 

5- 

When  age  shall  approach,  and  the  Power  Divine 
Shall  bid  me  at  once  life  and  Fanny  resign, 
Then  thankful  to  Heaven  for  blessings  possessed, 
May  I  calmly  and  quietly  sink  into  rest ; 
May  I  steal  to  my  grave,  lamented  by  many, 
Yet  blessing  the  hour  that  joined  me  to  Fanny.
